location incredible. Everyone was so nice and they would always help you in anything you need!

The location is excellent! Very easy to navigate and close to a lot of the attractions. The rooms were just as advertised, clean and comfortable. The shared toilets and shower rooms were well maintained and clean. They also offer unlimited breakfast at 3 pounds - which was great. The common space was cosy and offered lots of activities. The staff were super friendly and let you leave your bags at the hostel before checking in and after checking out. Overall, amazing value for money!
